Great gifts for mom
Celebrate Mother’s Day, or any day with your mom, with one of these unique gift ideas.
This Sunday is Mother’s Day in the United States, India, and several other countries around the globe.
While you could give your mother flowers and candy or take her out for brunch, we’ve put together a few gift ideas perfect for a Lumia owner.
Gifts
Why not upgrade your mom’s current smartphone to the latest and greatest, the Lumia 640 or Lumia 640 XL*? The Lumia 640 features a large 5-inch screen and 8-megapixel main camera, while the queen-sized Lumia 640 XL boasts a 5.7-inch display and 13-megapixel main camera.
This affordable powerhouse even comes with a one-year subscription to Office 365 Personal (retail price: $70 USD). Read here to see how to set up your copy.
* Currently available in select markets.
Nokia Portable Wireless Speaker ($29.99)
This tiny speaker packs a lot of power. Mom can simply tap her NFC-enabled Lumia phone, such as the Lumia 640 or Lumia 640 XL, to connect the speaker or use Bluetooth to stream tunes wirelessly. Extremely portable and attractive, the speaker comes in orange, white, green, and yellow.
Nokia Treasure Tag Mini ($17)
Mom will never lose her keys again! Simply attach a Nokia Treasure Tag Mini to her keys (or any other important object) and she’ll be able to track them with her Lumia. She’ll even receive a notification when she’s about to leave them behind.
Nokia Purity HD Stereo Headset by Monster (as low as $54.88)
Designed for mobile devices, the Nokia Purity HD Stereo Headset delivers crisp, clear sound for enjoying music or making calls. Make sure your mother is calling in comfort with its in-line microphone and ultra-soft earphones.
Apps
Mom (free)
Having trouble conveying a personal, heartfelt message to the woman who gave you life? The Mom app will randomly select a message to remind her how special she is. Once you’ve chosen the right note, send it to her via SMS or social media. (But I suggest following it up with a real gift if you know what’s good for you.)
Mother’s Day (free)
Create a custom digital Mother’s Day card with the free Mother’s Day app. Simply select a frame and match it with a photo to make a card that can be shared by email, SMS, or social media.

If you play Frozen Free Fall or Cinderella Free Fall (both free) on your Lumia, enjoy the Disney Mother’s Day** sale this weekend. Starting at 12:30pm PT today through May 10, get special deals on power-ups for both games.
